There’s no way Bridgewater is the starter next year, right?

I think Teddy is the starter on Day 1 next year, and we'll have a 1st round QB sitting behind him until they feel comfortable putting him into the game. I suspect, at this time, that will be Trey Lance.

Teddy got hurt against Tampa Bay, and went from mediocre to pretty poor after that. I think it's pretty obvious at this point, that despite that he's not the answer in Carolina.

I've watched Teddy his entire career through college, and man is it frustrating for him to be so hated here. I think he's going to do a fine job mentoring our next QB, but I really wish people would stop looking for reasons to hate him. I think people are really over-reading into different things between him and Coach Rhule. 

I think it would be a different story had he been here on a deal like Cam signed with New England or Winston had with New Orleans. I don't think the level of hatred would be nearly as high if he wasn't getting paid so much money(15th highest paid QB in the NFL in 2021, 11th highest paid QB in the NFL in 2022). 

It isn't necessarily his fault that he got offered a goofily huge deal but he basically proved he is a backup caliber QB and that wasn't what was supposed to happen. It makes it all the worse when we have arguably the best WR corps that we have had since Smitty and Moose.

      Not many people talking about DT, but we have a need.  (DE)  Now this guy is a NT like Brown III

      At this point its Sadiq or bust... A

      But is it about letting Bryce develop or about winning games? Bryce has not been good enough to be an uncontested starter. He just hasn't. How many times has last drive Bryce shown up for 4 entire quarters? Once in 3 seasons? You aren't going to win 9 or 10 one score games every season year in and year out. You may want Bryce in the last 2 minutes. I want that Bryce the full 60.  No one is saying you have to give up on him, but bringing in another QB that can do anything is not hindering Bryce. It helps the team and that's where the focus needs to be. If drafting Sadiq to plague the middle of the field would help out offense, but Bryce struggles to get pass into the middle of the field, is Sadiq a bad pick? Or could he be a good pick with a better option at QB? We can't be afraid to improve. QB, TE, OL, LB, DL, CB, S. It doesn't matter. The goal is SBs, not 5 to 8 years seeing waiting to see if Bryce can develop while the rest of the league keeps passing us by.  Sadiq is a nice option, but I think we have to address tackle if one we like is there because we are painfully thin after this year, a LB to general the field, and a true ball hawking safety that can set the tone in the secondary. Those 3 positions are bigger game changers than a TE that will likely struggle to make a round 1 impact in this offense.

      Lil Stanky 100% in the dot tonight... And our 2nd line has been our best offensive line this season. Maybe our 2C really was on the roster this whole time...?
